Arimidex and Bone Loss - Osteoporosis Message Board

Annie17 · 05-01-2008, 02:38 PM

I started Arimidex today (adjuvant therapy for stage 1 breast cancer), which definitely depletes bone (it virtually eliminates estrogen). So, I am 57, osteopenia and osteoporisis diagnosis last fall, and I am starting Ezorb in the new few days--as soon as it arrives. I want to participate in a discussion on this topic. Has anyone been on Arimidex or other aromatase inhibitors and used Ezorb? Other products successfully? I have to take Arimidex for 5 years.
Thanks.

Is this a new medication for breast cancer survivors? I have a family member taking Tomoxifin and wondering if this was a newer medication. Sorry I don't know anything about ezorb. I hope someone comes along that does. You are allowed to eat products with calcium and Vit D, correct?

My mother is on Arimidex and also on Fosamax (because of the arimidex). I haven't heard of Ezorb. Is it new?

Yes, with arimidex you continue with calcium and VD supplements.
